Determine The Starting System
Before starting the engine, you must determine the type of starting system that is on your
engine. Your engine will have one of the following types.
®
ReadyStart System: This features a temperature controlled automatic choke. It
•
does not have a manual choke or a primer.
Primer System: This features a red primer to be used for starting in cool
•
temperatures. It does not have a manual choke.
Choke System: This features a choke to be used for starting in cool temperatures.
•
Some models will have a separate choke lever while others will have a combination
choke/throttle lever. This type does not have a primer.
To start your engine, follow the instructions for your type of starting system.
Note: Equipment may have remote controls. See the equipment manual for location and
operation of remote controls.

ReadyStart
1. Check the oil level. See the How To Check/Add Oil section.
2. Make sure equipment drive controls, if equipped, are disengaged.
3. Push the stop switch (A), if equipped, to the on position (Figure 4).
4. Turn the fuel shut-off valve (B), if equipped, to the on position.
5. Move the throttle control (C) to the fast
position.
6. If the product is equipped with an engine stop lever (D), hold the engine stop lever
against the handle (Figure 5).
7. Rewind Start: Firmly hold the starter cord handle (E). Pull the starter cord handle
slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly (Figure 4).
Note: If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, go to
BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM or call 1-800-233-3723 (in USA).
WARNING:
Rapid retraction of the starter cord (kickback) will pull your
hand and arm toward the engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures,
bruises or sprains could result. When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
8. Electric Start: Turn the electric start switch to the on/start position.
Note: If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, go to
BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM or call 1-800-233-3723 (in USA).
NOTICE: To extend the life of the starter, use short starting cycles (five seconds
maximum). Wait one minute between starting cycles.
Primer System - Figure 5
1. Check the oil level. See the How To Check/Add Oil section.
2. Make sure equipment drive controls, if equipped, are disengaged.
3. Push the stop switch (A), if equipped, to the on position (Figure 6).
4. Turn the fuel shut-off valve (B), if equipped, to the on position.
5. Move the throttle control (C) to the fast
position.
6. Push the red primer (F) three times.
Note: Priming is usually unnecessary when restarting a warm engine.
Note: If you push the primer too many times, excessive fuel will flood the carburetor
and the engine will be difficult to start.
7. If the product is equipped with an engine stop lever (D), hold the engine stop lever
against the handle (Figure 5).
8. Rewind Start: Firmly hold the starter cord handle (E). Pull the starter cord handle
slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly (Figure 6).
Note: If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, repeat Steps 6, 7, and 8. If
it still does not start, go to BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM or call 1-800-233-3723 (in
USA).
WARNING:
Rapid retraction of the starter cord (kickback) will pull your
hand and arm toward the engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures,
bruises or sprains could result. When starting engine, pull the starter cord slowly until
resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.
9. Electric Start: Turn the electric start switch to the on/start position.
Note: If the engine does not start after repeated attempts, repeat Steps 6, 7, and 9. If
it still does not start, go to BRIGGSandSTRATTON.COM or call 1-800-233-3723 (in
